Microbe hunting in the 21st century.
A paper from Delwart and colleagues a recent issue of PNAS (1) affords an opportunity not only to discuss a new virus potentially linked to flaccid paralysis but also to review global efforts to eradicate poliovirus, the major cause of flaccid paralysis; recent advances in microbe hunting; and the potential complexity of proving causation when discovering novel microbes. An Egyptian stone carvi...
متن کاملHost Specificity in Microbe-Microbe Interactions
ventional monocultural crop systems often supported by high inputs of pesticides and fertilizers to sustainable agriculture. Although precise definitions of sustainable agriculture vary, one key aspect is a reduction in agrichemical inputs with a corresponding shift to alternative crop protection strategies, such as cultural practices, organic amendments, resistant or tolerant crop varieties, a...
متن کاملExpression of fluorescent proteins in Lactobacillus rhamnosus to study host–microbe and microbe–microbe interactions
Probiotic Lactobacillus strains are widely used to benefit human and animal health, although the exact mechanisms behind their interactions with the host and the microbiota are largely unknown. Fluorescent tagging of live probiotic cells is an important tool to unravel their modes of action. In this study, the implementation of different heterologously expressed fluorescent proteins for the lab...

متن کاملMutualistic hunting
The cooperative acquisition, defense and distribution of meat are common problems that must be solved by social hunters. These were also problems faced by any of our hominid ancestors that may have hunted large game in our evolutionary past. Much of the last 40 years of research in evolutionary ecology has tried to understand such cooperative behavior. The classic Prisoner's Dilemma game theory...
